Name: Intel G3930 Dual-Core Processor - 2.9 GHz - LGA 1151 - 2MB Cache
Brand: Intel

Intel G3930 Dual-Core Processor - 2.9 GHz was launched in Q1'17 as an affordable, energy-efficient desktop CPU based on the Kaby Lake microarchitecture.

The Intel Celeron G3930 provides two physical cores and two threads with a base frequency of 2.9 GHz, making it well suited for everyday PC tasks, office work and light multimedia playback. Its 14 nm process and 51 W TDP keep power consumption modest for compact or budget systems.

This processor fits LGA 1151 (Socket H4) motherboards and is part of the Intel Celeron G3000 desktop series, featuring 2 MB Smart Cache and support for 64-bit operating modes. Note that the package is shipped as a tray unit and does not include a cooler.

Memory support is flexible for budget builds, with compatibility for up to 64 GB of DDR4-SDRAM or DDR3L-SDRAM across dual-channel operation. Supported memory speeds include 1333, 1600, 2133 and 2400 MHz with 1.35 V signaling and optional ECC support for specific platforms.

Integrated Intel HD Graphics 610 provides basic GPU functionality with a base frequency of 350 MHz and dynamic frequency up to 1050 MHz. It supports up to three simultaneous displays and 4K output (4096 x 2304) over DisplayPort, eDP and HDMI, with DisplayPort/eDP at 60 Hz and HDMI at up to 24 Hz. The GPU supports DirectX 12.0 and OpenGL 4.4 for accelerated video and casual gaming.

The G3930 includes features such as Intel VT-x, VT-d, Intel AES-NI, Quick Sync Video, Enhanced SpeedStep and hardware security features like Intel Secure Key and Intel SGX. It does not support Hyper-Threading, Turbo Boost or Intel vPro. Thermal monitoring, Execute Disable Bit and idle states are supported to help maintain system stability.

This CPU is ideal for entry-level desktops: home office PCs, web browsing and media centers, thin clients and educational machines. It also works well in small form-factor builds where low TDP and integrated graphics are priorities. Note that the product is discontinued, so buyers should expect limited new-stock availability.
